Original MPU-401 interfaces are rare, expensive, and essential for true MPU-401 Intelligent Mode with the Roland MT-32. Instead of paying collector prices, I built my own custom ISA card: Hard MPU. In this video, I cover assembly, testing, and performance of this retro PC hardware project, and demonstrate authentic MT-32 music in classic DOS games. Perfect for fans of vintage computers, retro gaming, PC restoration, MIDI hardware, ISA cards, DOS audio, Roland MT-32, and retro computer mods. - Get the PCB here: https://www.pcbway.com/project/shareproject/HardMPU_1_1_MPU401_Replacement_74b92de6.html - Support me on patreon.com/Epictronics Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/epictronics - Repair and restoration here: https://youtu.be/60pSQR5aIUs?si=-j48BWFSM8PbEYtE Extreme overclock here: https://youtu.be/W9WBaT-JwNA?si=h1b7n5irTluXSFek - Tools I regularly use FNIRSI DWS-200 Solder station PinePower Bench PSU AMTECH NC-559-ASM Flux Kester 951 Flux pen Hanstar 861DW Rework Station Pro'sKit SS-331 Desoldering Station SEQURE HT140 Desoldering Tweezers Multicore 60/40. 0.38mm solder AOYUE int883 PCB Preheater RIGOL DHO800 70MHz four-channel digital Oscilloscope Tektronix 2246A 100 MHz four-channel analog Oscilloscope FNIRSI DPOX180H 180MHz Handheld Oscilloscope UNI-T UT61E Auto Ranging Multimeter UNI-T UT890D Manual Ranging Multimeter FNIRSI LC1020E LCR/ESR meter TL866 II Plus Programmer InfiRay P2 Pro Thermal Camera TOMLOV TM4K-AF Flex Microscope Dremel 3000 with flexible shaft MaAnt Mini"Dremel" DeoxIT D5 Contact Cleaner PCBs from PCBWay.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Support me on patreon.com/Epictronics Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/epictronics
